Abstract: A display device includes a light source arranged to emit light along a first edge of the display device, and aa light guide plate arranged go receive the emitted light at a minor surface of the light guide plate. The light guide plate includes prismatic elements configured to reemit the light out a first major surface of the light guide plate. A first region of the light guide plate has a first portion of the prismatic elements arranged in a first density to provide a first brightness of the reemitted light reemitted. A second region of the light guide plate has a second portion of the prismatic elements arranged in a second density to provide a second brightness of the reemitted light reemitted. The first region is provided substantially along a first edge of the first major surface, and the second region is provided along a second, a third, and a fourth edge of the first major surface. The first brightness is brighter than the second brightness.
